Articles containing tag "impedance"

Whatever you are plugging your headphones into, be it a mobile device,
computer, Hi-Fi, TV or a dedicated headphone amplifier, it is important to
consider the output impedance of the source, alongside the nominal impedance
of the headphones. Impedance is express in ohms (Ω).
If the headphone impedance is too high c...

Nominal Impedance is the amount of opposition to alternating current.
The ideal nominal impedance of a headphone would exactly match the output
impedance of the source.
Differences between the output impedance of the source and the impedance of
the headphone could result in louder or softer volume than expected.
